First post

Today I decided to start a blog as an interactive extension of my personal website. On this blog I will share my astronomical adventures.

For a trip to La Palma I recently acquired a second hand modified Vixen Photoguider. This is a small equatorial tracking mount on which two cameras (or a camera and a guidescope) can be mounted. It enables me to track the stars and compensate for the Earth's rotation.
